Taking Care of Number One

Sometimes, taking care of yourself is the one thing that you can do that most improves your life.av After all, if you don't look out for number one, who will?

I woke up this morning feeling off and out of sorts. I actually woke up earlier than normal this morning. I felt twitchy and like I was going to jump out of my skin. I have felt this way the entire day.

Normally, I try to push through things. I regularly have days where I have pain or fatigue, but often you have to suck it up and still do things. Today, I decided not to suck it up.

I was very gentle with myself, tried to stay relaxed and calm, and even took a long and satisfying nap. I still feel a bit off, but I am definitely better than I was. I think that if I hadn't taken care of myself, I may have been headed for feeling worse.
